This table lists the major infantry-carrying systems and reconnaissance vehicles in military use today. Some older systems (M3 Halftrack, for example) are still in very limited use world-wide, but are not significant threats; many may be inoperable for lack of spare parts.

Those systems with heavy machine gun or cannon armament will have a MAIN GUN and EFF RANGE (Effective Range) listed. Those systems with only light- or medium-machine gun armament with have listings in SEC GUN (Secondary Gun(s)). If a weapon has a significant vehicle weapon that does not fall into one of these catagories (ATGM), a listing will be found under OTHER. Some systems have firing ports, and this will increase the vehicle firepower at close range (some may have variants with fewer numbers of ports than shown). The number of troops carried does not include the vehicle crew. The RANGE indicates the unrefueled vehicle road range. The maximum speed is the vehicle’s maximum road speed. The maximum armor thickness on the vehicle (not necessarily the average or predominant level of protection) is listed as MAX ARMOR (armor angle may significantly improve the protection, however).
